Zig bindings for [[https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/][libcurl]], a free and easy-to-use client-side URL transfer library.

#+begin_quote

This package is in early stage, although the core functionality works right now, the API is still subject to changes.

#+end_quote

The vendored libraries consist of:

| Library | Version |

|---------+---------|

| libcurl | [[https://github.com/curl/curl/tree/curl-8_8_0][8.8.0]]   |

| zlib    | [[https://github.com/madler/zlib/tree/v1.3.1][1.3.1]]   |

| mbedtls | [[https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/tree/v3.6.0][3.6.0]]   |

* Usage

#+begin_src zig

const curl = @import("curl");

pub fn main() !void {

    var gpa = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator(.{}){};

    defer if (gpa.deinit() != .ok) @panic("leak");

    const allocator = gpa.allocator();

    const easy = try curl.Easy.init(allocator, .{});

    defer easy.deinit();

    const resp = try easy.get("http://httpbin.org/anything");

    defer resp.deinit();

    std.debug.print("Status code: {d}\nBody: {s}\n", .{

        resp.status_code,

        resp.body.items,

    });

}

#+end_src

See [[file:examples/basic.zig]], [[file:examples/advanced.zig]] for more usage.

* Installation

#+begin_src bash

zig fetch --save=curl https://github.com/jiacai2050/zig-curl/archive/${COMMIT}.tar.gz

#+end_src

Replace ~${COMMIT}~ with a real one, then in your =build.zig=, import the module like this:

#+begin_src zig

const dep_curl = b.dependency("curl", .{});

exe.root_module.addImport("curl", dep_curl.module("curl"));

exe.linkLibC();

#+end_src

This library will link to a vendored libcurl by default, you can disable it and link to system-wide with this

#+begin_src zig

const dep_curl = b.dependency("curl", .{ .link_vendor = false });

exe.linkSystemLibrary("curl");

exe.linkLibC();

#+end_src
